2035 : Towards Mars

[bdfd]

Hi,

To whet your appetite (I hope) : here the first picture of my project :
The first manned station on planet Mars.



We see an astronaut, an rover, an Mars return vehicule and a habitation module...

6 months later, the second crew is arrived (vessel at left).

The geodesic complex is finished, we see an astronaut in airlock, ready to go out.

The ground is clean, it shoud have more rocks... [:)]

aaaaaaaa.... GEODESIC cupola... I was planning to use one of them in my project...
ok.... I will not. [:D]
Good job guy.... I feel I am in red planet

SOL 213 : Here the rover port near the habitation module is operational.

You see in the background 4 solar flowers (1 for each rover, 1 for the habitation module and 1 for the geodesic complex)

No adventure without a grand plan of space exploration...



The mission : Mars One

Grand control to major bdfd: Bravo, well done!

Thank you Lady Vero. [:)]

Here is a morning view of the red planet with the domes, the shed and solar flowers (2 on 4).

SPECIAL FLASH

"allo houston, I think I have a problem". [:(]

I can no longer generate pictures because the file weighs more than 192 MB!?!

Even the display window does not appear... [:((]

A call for help is on !

Hi bdfd.
I have the same problem sometimes. It happen to me when the project area is a bit too big or when the models are complicated for sh3D renderer. And your problem is in GEODESIC objects. I had the same. Glass GEODESIC objects are really complicated for rendering. And you use not only 1 but 10 in your project!!!!! Your graphic is going to be mad [:))].... Try to hide every objects you can't see in your focus during rendering.
It helped me.
Or try to use lower AA setting if you use 1.3.1. renderer

@Martin : Indeed, large spirits meet. [:)]

I had assumed it was the Geodesic domes. [:(]
Therefore I reworked them and have decreased their number by half.

We begin to approach the software limits. [:((]

Hooray the project must go on !
Thus was born Mars One bis. [=D>]

Look at the new habitation module (made by myself with sh3d & anim8or)
